Damn, not too long ago I spent way too much time contemplating that Netflix movie The House, and this just brought back all the angry confusion.

I never let a boomer get away with the “it’s just how I was raised” excuse when they show support for racist or homophobic views. I’m certainly not about to accept the same excuse from college kids who are at a school in order to learn new things.
Learn new things. It’s not a suggestion, it’s the entire point of being where they are.
You want SoulSeek. I swear it’s not a dating app
I probably first got the weird idea when I signed up for Gmail and they made a whole show and dance about how your storage space just continually increases. The little storage space ticker was animated to the point of annoyance.
Today Google just annoys me with alerts that I’m 90% full and better give them money or else.
They give two good tldrs near the bottom of the article:
The armor, said Wald, doesn’t go where the bullet holes are. It goes where the bullet holes aren’t
If you go to the recovery room at the hospital, you’ll see a lot more people with bullet holes in their legs than people with bullet holes in their chests. But that’s not because people don’t get shot in the chest; it’s because the people who get shot in the chest don’t recover.
I was drunk when I commented but I think I was trying to imply that the survivors can’t always tell the complete story.
Just posting a comment for all the people that did die 1 times and aren’t able to comment now. How do you think this sort of thing works again? You should look up the story about the airplane mechanic in WWII
Or you could be like the company I previously worked for and not monitor anything with any seriousness, but a lowly tech managing some one-off software installs for the office PCs (me) might notice software that shouldn’t exist and report it. Happened to a new guy, the VPN to his home got higher ups combing through his work, and was the final icing on the cake after they also found emails from work to a personal email with customer information attached. They didn’t even entertain an excuse, he was sacked same day. (This was all pre COVID, there was no such thing as work from home)
So yea, definitely…VPN might not be the hammer that falls, but it can start the hunt and still burn you. Someone might use it to browse lemmy, other people might use it to steal company data. It’s not worth the risk for a company to attempt to differentiate between the two. Obligatory ‘your mileage may vary’, especially now with the COVID push to work from home, but it happens!
You’re a legend. Glad to see you here
Watch the documentary The Internet’s Own Boy. It’s very much worth the watch.
The most impressive part is the lack of footprints on Amy’s side. She can swing that ass like a cement truck
Just sounds like little Timmy figured out why they’re called mobile games before his parents did.
Remember when the right was so obsessed with stopping Russian propaganda that they dragged half the Democratic party into a Senate sanctioned witch hunt looking for Russian mouthpieces?
Now they happily gobble up Russian propaganda to own the libs.
this is informative, and unfortunate
I can confirm, I get pushed Linus hard. I watched like 3 or 4 of his PC build videos one time a while back. Never clicked on a WAN Show episode (his podcast). But now if I let just about any gaming/tech video roll to next, I get served entire podcast episodes of his like 25% of the time. I never asked for this, I always click off, they keep coming back. I’m not mad really just bewildered. Idk the retention must be there
Probably around 87% of it
I can’t really take seriously any accusations coming from Sarah Silverman after that whole wage gap bs she tried to pull.
Seems like she isn’t afraid to manipulate a trending social outcry to collect a paycheck.
I’ve worked for a few of the larger ISPs in the US. They all have their own special weird shit like a windows NT machine shoved in a corner in a CO in west Texas that you have to remote desktop into and run some java applet from the 90 to log into a hardwired machine from the 70s just to set up a voicemail box for a phone line. Ain’t broke don’t fix it leads to some wild setups at companies you wouldn’t expect it from.
Careful, sometimes they’ll come out just to pull your plug from a concentrator when you disconnect, or it just happens when they’re hooking up a new customer and yours gets unplugged to make room. But then they turn around and charge like $50 just to come out and plug that back in for a new install. That can be the entire install, you can bring your own modem and have everything fine inside, but some yahoo charges $50 to come out and plug some coax into a concentrator in a box 20 ft from your house that they unplugged for free last week.
It’s probably going to feel more like Watson in that Sherlock Holmes videogame
Some projectors are about this size too, and are surprisingly powerful for their size. But then the new issue is finding a blank section of wall
